ITunes shows 2,700 photos on my iPhone, but there's only 161 on the phone.
My iPhone's disc space is suddenly full. iTunes shows I have 7gb of photos (2,700)on my iPhone when I connect it, but my phone really only has 161.
I recently updated to iOS 4.0.1 on iPhone 3GS and iTunes 9.2.0.61 on Windows Vista. I was previously using iOS 3.1.3 and iTunes 9.0.xxx (not sure of which 9.0 version) and I had been using an App called Goodreader. I would transfer my files via USB with an .exe file called GoodreaderUSB to my iPhone. Now I can't since iTunes has been cracking down on that, and Goodreader uses iTunes to USB transfer with their new version and iTunes 9.2.xxx. I have a feeling my old USB transfers are all still in my phone, just unaccessible but iTunes is showing them as photos as far as disc space goes. This could be completely unrelated to Goodreader, but I have a strong suspicion it's the problem.
I've attempted multiple backups and syncs and I'm only syncing 84 photos (part of the 161 on my phone).
I also just realized it's showing 5.8gb of apps, when I did the math quick and only have 2gb of apps.
My iPhone also shows that I have used this much disc space when I run the app "System Activity Monitor."
Anyone know how to resolve this problem?

GoodReaderUSB originally worked by transferring files to a special location on a user’s iPhone, which iPhone’s GoodReader app was able to access. However, accessing this location was a violation of Apple’s iPhone SDK Agreement, because the app had to access files outside its own private storage space, which is forbidden by Apple.
Because of this, your only choice to fix this. at this point, may be to restore your phone as a "new" device in itunes and NOT from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone. Unfortunately, ALL saved data on your phone will be lost.

A song I purchased shows up in iTunes, but will not show up on my iPhone. When the phone is plugged into the computer, iTunes shows that it is on my iPhone, but it is not. How do I get that song to show up on my iPhone?
I have the same problem and it only affects the one song, everything else syncs

I am trying to update my iTunes so I can sync my new iphone 5s and it doesn't recognize the phone, apple support said I need to update my iTunes when I try and do that I get an error message that says " the ITunes update server could not be contacted. Please check your internet connection or try back later.
My internet works fine and I have tried back dozens of times with same result.Did you ever figure out the problem? "Contact Software Manufacturer"?? That sounds ominous... I've got the same issue and I'm pretty durn aggravated right about now....

I want to install apps using itunes from my pc but there is only on option for doing that i.e. itunes replace the installed apps with apps on itunes. Is there any other way for doing that without replacing my apps ???
Ipod touch will sync with one computer at a time. If you sync to another then it will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.

Itunes says no room for music on iphone but there is 26gb free!
I have an ipod with about 14 gb of music on it, just bought an iphone (32gb).
My apps transfered OK but itunes refuses to transfer any music saying
there is no room although the iphone claims 26gb free..Sims sometimes go bad. You might want to visit your cellular provider, get a new SIM. You'll have to go through the activation process. If it still does the same thing, you might have an issue with the phone.

IPhone 6 asks for a passcode but there is no passcode on the phone
About three weeks ago I got an iPhone 6 and have had problems ever since. Initially I put on a passcode but then removed it because I didn't want to keep clicking all day long (have repetitive strain). But the phone kept asking for the code. So after numerous calls to Rogers and Apple support, I went through various resets, deletes, restores to factory settings, restores with and without backup, restores without syncing the phone to iTunes, etc.. Same problem. Took phone to Apple and they replaced it. That worked for about four hours – new phone never had a passcode but keeps asking me for one, primarily when I use Hey Siri, but new phone couldn't have a memory from my old phone; it was never connected to iTunes.
Has anyone had a similar problem? Is this trending with Hey Siri? I am not locked out of my phone. And neither phone, the first one or the new one, remembers the original passcode. I can put in the original passcode or another passcode, or I can simply hit the accessibility device that I use and click "home screen" and bypass the problem altogether. The actual message that I get is I'll say, "text my sister" and Siri will say, "you have to unlock your iPhone." Then I get a passcode prompt, not for the Apple Store but as though I had a real passcode.
Any suggestions? Wondering if other people have seen this and solved it. I have read about putting the phone in recovery mode. I'm thinking about doing that but the whole thought of re-entering my data for the 12th time – killing my hand – and then retraining Siri is discouraging. She doesn't know anything at all in the beginning. I restored her from my iPhone 4S, so she works very well in terms of knowing me and my vocabulary now. Very happy with the phone except for incessant passcode prompt.
Thanks. SigridMake an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple store or contact AppleCare. Some Apple Stores in the US can replace the display in an iPhone 5 for $149. If it requires more than that, a replacement phone will cost you $229.

How do I permanently save my photos from my iPhone 5 to free up storage on the phone
I want to permanently save my photos from my I phone 5. How do I do that so I can delete them off my phone to free up storage?
You can transfer them to a computer as described in iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Another option is a 3rd party service such as Flickr
Apple has announced that iOS 8 will have an improvement that will also help: https://www.apple.com/ios/ios8/photos/ -
i can't remember if it was different yo my normal one but I don't intend to tell him. He is now asking instead for my security questions answers.
IS there an thing I can do without releasing into to him?Yes,
Go to Find My Phone, locate the specific Phone and remove it from your account,
Remove an iOS device you no longer have
If you no longer have the iOS device because you gave it away or sold it, you need to remotely erase it before you can remove it.
Sign in to icloud.com/#find with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud).If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.If you don’t see Find My iPhone on iCloud.com, your account just has access to iCloud web-only features. To gain access to other iCloud features, set up iCloud on your iOS device or Mac.
Click All Devices, then select the device.
Click Erase [device], then enter your Apple ID password. Because the device isn’t lost, don’t enter a phone number or message.
Note: If you’re trying to erase a family member’s device, that person will need to enter his or her Apple ID password on this device.
If the device is offline, the remote erase begins the next time it’s online. You’ll receive an email when the device is erased.If you erase your iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus and you have credit and debit cards in Passbook for Apple Pay, Find My iPhone attempts to remove your cards immediately, even if your iPhone is offline. For more information, see the Apple Support article Using Passbook.
When the device is erased, click Remove from Account.All your content is erased, and someone else can now activate the device. -
I recently got my long desired MAC, after a laptop died over a year ago. Isn't there someway to get all of the music and movies that I've already invested in, off of iTunes? Don't they have a record of my purchases, that could be downloaded to this new computer? I thought I had it on an external hard drive, after a friend tried to save my itunes and photographs, but there are only photographs on the hard drive..... Any help would be most appreciated! Thanks!
Hello kc9agz,
Thank you for contacting Mozilla Support. Did you back up your bookmarks before you moved to the new computer? You can find more information about backing up and restoring bookmarks in this article.
[[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
Please let us know if this solves your issue.
Cheers,

How do you email photos from an iphone to a business email so that the photo shows up as an attachment vs. a part of the body of the email?
Eric, thanks for the info about the pictures, it worked. The mail icon is not the one that came with the mac(it looks like a stamp with an eagle) this appears at a notepad with a ruler,paintbrush and pencil. I can not open it, I did not download it and now I can not turn off the computer with shutdown I have to manually turn if off by pressing the power button. This can not be normal. Any suggestions. thanks, Ellen

iTunes shows that there are no songs on my iphone but there are 274 songs there. The data storage shows up as "other" on iTunes. I just want to clear the music on my phone but I can't seem to do so. Is there any way to do this? You used to be able to swipe and delete a song straight from your phone but I can't seem to do that anymore.
That is stealing.

I upgraded fro iphone4 to iphone5. i restored from backup in iCloud, and almost everything is there perfectly. there was one app on the phone, which i clicked on to finish the install, but it then disappeared. in my iTunes, under library/apps, this app still shows there. how do i reinstall this app. it was a paid app, and i searched the app store, and apparently it is no longer there.
any help would be greatly appreciated.It appears to be fixed, he had multiple versions of iTunes installed (since he put his iTunes in a different folder) the iTunes icon launched the old iTunes, even though the new was installed. it's working now.

How can I import pictures from my iphone to PC which I imported to the iphone from another PC? The folder doesn't show on my computer. I see all other pictures I took with the phone but not the imported folder.
Photos that were synced from a computer won't show for copying to a computer. If you want to copy them back then you will need a third-party app on your phone such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer (e.g. their dimensions might be different and their colours may look a bit different).
